Lambs lettuce is quick to grow at this time of the year and will grow well under fleece well into the winter. It's pretty pest/disease resistant too. Well worth a try

Hi Got my allotment as a christmas present from the family, and spent all boxing day just digging. I had a great deal to do, but the other plotters were so helpful, even though i had an empty plot, just some old rhubarb and lots of couch grass ( I am still looking for a rhubarb and couch grass pie recipie) i never went home empty handed.
So wishing you all you want from your space, and enjoy, some days i just sit and look, watching the couch grass grow...

Hi Dilly, I don't have a lot of experience with rhubarb but personally I would leave it until it is a bit bigger before shifting it...or at the very least, wait until cooler weather to minimise disruption to it's metabolism.
Allotment is as allotment does...There's no point reading history if you don't use the lessons it teaches.
